Expanded league (sulpts) for a Chinese theme
« on: November 26, 2017, 12:38:19 PM »
After duplicating threads( just type too slow.) and the recently added thread on the reduced number of new threads I thought I'd better redeme myself and add another thread😁
Here's a quick update on my Chinese themed figures.
After Fram sent a couple sketches of figure ideas. I've got a little side tracked. First I made the league incorporating one of his ideas. Then popped off to do a little more research. As a result it dawned on me you simply couldn't anywhere in this part of the. World in the twenties and thirties without 'help' wanted or unwanted.
So I realised the league needs followers in order to keep the period feel. So I've started with some warlords cannon fodder.Then they'll need some sort of transport. A slightly battered lorry with propaganda slapped on it.
And this is as far as I've managed to get.

Mark.

Very nice love the big blades, but you'd think the thieves that robbed the wheels would have at least left the truck up on blocks  lol

Mark,
These are very nice! I am really looking forward to getting my hands on these. The Dogmeat General is always in need of more canon fodder troops. lol

Cheers Chaps,
Orctrader.
There's no release date ,As they've not got a home yet. Not enough done to add a section to the Follies. Or even sure if I want to.
Dags.
No idea how they scale up as I don't have any of Marks to compare them with. ( Im sure he doesnt worry about scaling to mine either 😉)I decided to go the terra cotta route and make them all individuals no recycled heads
Lon.
Glad you like them as it's your thread that's motivated wider musings heading east.
Here's a few pictures of some ideas that gave 99% chance of making it to clay.

Some great pictures. That last one is interesting: Mongolia or perhaps a little farther north?

Some great looking future character. The current sculpts with big swords are definitely joining the Dogmeat General's Railroad Police. I can see their leadership potential from here! lol lol

Yes, those guards should blend well with the Copplestone Chinese.


I joined my gun with pirate swords, and sailed the seas of cyberspace.

T.S.G.
I don't think you should tease like this, these figures are amazing and should be available to your adoring public.
Well us anyway. ;)
The photos are very inspirational really like the car with the solid wheel hubs.
Cheers

I think that those may be Tibetans in the last picture.

Ah yes, now that you mention it. I recall seeing some modern pictures of Tibetans with similar 'hats'.

They are also wearing chuba. They may be Khampa.
